Takes up questions of subjectification, selfhood and identity in the contemporary Asia Pacific, in 'sites of crossing' between the global and local. Here, the authors question the novelty of the 'global age' in the Asia Pacific region.
The authors take up questions of subjectification, selfhood and identity in the contemporary Asia Pacific, in 'sites of crossing' between the global and local. The contributors engage with artistic and literary production and religions, as strategies for global domination but also as designs for 'planetary conviviality' and new and old migrations. The migrant appears as the quintessential image of a new cosmopolitanism. Collectively, the authors question the novelty of the 'global age' in the Asia Pacific region.
